    Default Packin' up the traveldor

    which is really a Coleman 8-pack cooler, for vacation next week. I always have trouble doing this, well, trouble means taking way too long to decide. I'm not good at it since I don't really practice "smoke planning" as a routine. I'm more an "open it up and grab" kinda smoker for the most part though a particular cigar sometimes speaks to me.

    7 day vacation @ at least 3 cigars a day.....I'll take probably 30 smokes for a safe buffer. I think I'm gonna confine them to four manufacturers with a few odd island smokes thrown in.

    Camacho -- of course, for me a staple.
    Fuente---it's vacation, when better for Opus, Anejo, Ashton VSG, DC Max
    Padron (thanks Artyman...can't believe I left this one off)


    I'm torn on the other one........what would you add?

    Padron, DPG stuff, Oliva, Carlos Torano, some Diamond Crown sticks, some ISOM staples

    Not sure if you get into their stuff but also La Aurora and Padilla

    You must have alot of cigars to be able to choose from manufacturers...

    What are your other choices you're trying to pick from?

    Well it kinda depends on what you've got in there Ashkicker. Are you taking vacation now because it's spring break? Goin to the beach pretending to be fishing? Yep, gotcha.

    I would throw in a couple "special" cigars. You can always bring them back if you don't find the perfect setting to smoke them. If so, then you're prepared.

    Have a relaxing and safe week.

    Oh, how thoughtless of me. I meant to offer to babysit your stash while you are on vacation. Drop them off here and I'll keep them safe for you.

    It's almost impossible today to not have a smoke that DPG has had his hands in.

    All good choices....

    Padron....how could I forget Padron that will fix up number 3.

    Nah, I don't have alot of cigars, just a bunch of different cigars, and therefore lots of mfg's to choose from.

    I think he's coming down to Florida to dive with me, so he'll probably be stopping through there.

    So what did you choose for the 4th brand? You've left us in suspense.

    On a side note I have a mini-coolerdor I use as a traveldor as well. I have two 1oz heartfelt tubes that are velcroed perfectly into the lid and some misc box parts to line and divide the inside. Currently I figure I can fit 80-100 smokes in it but I may take one division(aprox. 1/3 the inside) and close it off to hold essentials like a lighter, cutter, pen, paper, etc. Have you made any special mods to yours?

    I'm thinkin' Oliva. No special mods, I'll just throw a couple of boveda packs in it, bag up the smokes and stuff 'em in. No need to make it more difficult than necessary.
